SPC files are sound themes, and ZAP files are WristApp programs. Sound themes and WristApp programs are supported in
protocols 3 and 4, namely the Timex Datalink 150 and 150s. These files can be transferred using the SoundTheme and
WristApp models described in the protocol 3 and
protocol 4 documentation.
First, we want to acquire the last version of the Timex Datalink software, which is version 2.1d. This can be downloaded from Timex's website (here's a direct link).
With the software downloaded, follow the directions below to extract SPC and ZAP files from the installer.
These instructions will use 7z, which is a part of p7zip, so make sure this is installed first. p7zip is probably a package in your distro's package manager, so install it this way, if possible.
The SPC and ZAP files are in the SETUP.EXE file, which is inside of TDL21D.EXE. These commands will extract
SETUP.EXE from TDL21D.EXE, create sound-themes and wrist-apps directories, and extract the SPC and ZAP files to
the appropriate directories.
7z e TDL21D.EXE SETUP.EXE
7z e SETUP.EXE -osound-themes *.SPC
7z e SETUP.EXE -owrist-apps *.ZAPThese instructions will use 7zip, so make sure this is installed first.
Right-click on TDL21D.EXE, hover over 7zip, and click on Open archive:
In the 7zip browser, you'll see SETUP.EXE. Right-click on this file, and click on Open Inside:
Then, we can extract the sound themes by selecting the SPC files, right-clicking on the selection, and clicking Copy To...
A window will appear that will ask you where you want to extract the sound themes. Pick a location, then click OK.
The WristApps can also be extracted by selecting the ZAP files, right-clicking on the selection, and clicking Copy To...
A window will appear that will ask you where you want to extract the WristApps. Pick a location, then click OK.
